These results demonstrate that the FRAX tool alone (USPSTF recommendation) fails to identify many women under the age of 65 with osteoporosis in need of BMD testing. Over half of women would not have had a BMD performed based on guidelines for screening BMD in women < 65. Further study is...
It is widely recognized that the risk of fractures is closely related to the typical decline in bone mass during the ageing process in both women and men. Exercise has been reported as one of the best non-pharmacological ways to improve bone mass throughout life. However, not all exercise ...
According to the US Preventative Services Task Force, DEXA screening is recommended for all men over the age of 70 and all women over the age of 65. Bone density should also be measured in women between the ages of 50 and 65 who are considered high risk for osteoporosis. In addition to...
We constructed age- and sex-smoothed reference values for areal bone mineral density (aBMD) of total body less head (TBLH), total body (TB), lumbar spine (LS), and bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) for LS, by means of Generalized Additive Models for Location, Scale and Shape (...
These patients accumulated 22,990 PYs for the risk of refracture. Then, the majority of the included studies were focused on post-menopausal women. Fig. 1 Flow chart Full size image Table 1 Characteristics of included randomized controlled trials Full size table Figure 2 shows the forest plots...
BC is one of the most common cancers among women. Similarly, in the absence of estrogen or androgen, increased osteoclast activity and bone remodeling lead to the release of osteogenic factors from resorbed bone, creating a favorable environment for the survival and growth of tumor cells. In add...
a Bone Mineral Density in Childhood Study (BMDCS) was a multi-ethnic longitudinal prospective study of healthy children and adolescents collected over 7 years at 5 clinical sites across the USA to establish national reference curves for bone density (study visit details are given in Additional ...
Brain structure and bone mineral density B Guo et al. 6. Takano, Y. et al. Hypoperfusion in the posterior cingulate cortex is associated with lower bone mass density in elderly women with osteopenia and Alzheimer's disease. Clin. Exp. Pharmacol. Physiol. 47, 365–371 (2020). 7. Qin, ...
Patients with inherited bone marrow failure syndromes (IBMFS) may have several risk factors for low bone mineral density (BMD). We aimed to evaluate the prevalence of low BMD in IBMFS and determine the associated risk factors. Patients with IBMFS with at
Brigham & Women's Hospital, Boston, MA. Background: Follicular dendritic cell (FDC) sarcoma is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that usually arises at lymphoid tissue-rich sites. Extranodal tumors often pursue an aggressive clinical course; however, effective systemic therapies are lacking. The genetic ...
